Poor people in our society can't afford to make good financial decisions. Lack of social safety nets mean they pay for childcare. Working 2 jobs means they eat fast food or prepared food. No money for a new car means old cars that always need repair.

If someone uses ICEBlock to perpetrate a violent attack on government agents, then the app creates a record that can be used to identify and prosecute the actors. That's not what the secret police is worried about. They're worried about no longer being secret and being held to account for crimes.
